Just when you thought that Hollywood is completely liberal, one of the few known conservatives in Tinseltown recently stepped forward to remind us otherwise. In this case, it's actor/director Clint Eastwood, who recently did an interview with the L.A Times where he talked about his political beliefs.

Some highlights:

Having started voting for GOP presidential contenders in 1952 with Dwight Eisenhower, Eastwood said he was tempted to break ranks only once  in 1992, for Ross Perot. I liked him, Eastwood said. I guess because I like rebels....

...Im a big hawk on cutting the deficit. I was against the stimulus thing too. We shouldnt be bailing out the banks and car companies. If a CEO cant figure out how to make his company profitable, then he shouldnt be the CEO.

When it comes to the current crop of Republican presidential candidates, if Eastwood is enthusiastic about anyone, its Herman Cain. I love Cains story, he says. Hes a guy who came from nowhere and did well, obviously against heavy odds. Hes a doer and a straight-talker, which I dont see enough of from either party..

The money and support is pouring in for Herman Cain, but we cannot slow down now. Please help him by donating at http://www.hermancain.com/

Also to help join the buzz about Herman go to facebook.com and like him. His likes have jumped dramatically since the attacks started. Make no mistake Sean Hannitys BFF Tokyo Rove is watching Hermans likes and so is Romney. THIS is the way to stick it to the GOP establishment! Please tell your family and friends to like Herman as well. Then lets bring out our most powerful tool for helping Herman Cain: PRAYING that God protects him from the people of darkness.

Now this is funny, because I DID vote for Perot. I was in Oregon at the time, and another guy in my office and I liked Perot. But we worried about splitting the vote. Come election day, since Oregon is on the West Coast, the election was already decided by the time we got to vote that day. I voted for Perot, but at the last minute, my buddy chickened out and voted for Bush Sr.

Our votes didn’t count, because Clinton had already won the election, and he had won Oregon.

(If Perry had been asked about the Cain 999 plan, he would have said: 9, 9, .......what?)
